Hi
Bhavya1506,
This is with respect to the profile evaluation request you posted on the group.
I am an Indian School of Business alum, CO14, and have been assisting applicants get into global business schools for the last 3 years.
Below is my evaluation of your profile :
GMAT : Lower than Average
Academics : Above Average – Post grad degree from a good college is a plus
Work Experience : Above Average
Pros : R&D experience in core field, recognition of innovation at work
Cons : No tangible leadership experience , No client facing experience – does not go well with your post MBA goals of Consulting
Extracurricular : Good. National Level Kho Kho Player is a plus
Overall you have all the ingredients of making a good application. However, to compensate for your lesser GMAT score, you will need to stitch your profile pointers into a compelling story. The elements of the story should be :
a. How does your professional experience complemented by ISB MBA tie in with your post MBA goals.
b. The impression of research is that it is more of self-innovation and less of collaboration. You will need to change this impression by stating how and in what circumstances you have demonstrated leadership at work.
c. You will need articulate what sort of responsibilities you want to take up in a techno-managerial role related to Technical companies. Please note that this is very different from Consulting and thus you will have to be clear in your short term and eventual long-term goal.
Please feel free to get in touch with me at
